May 14, The Walrus Is On The Move

Tue, 14 May 2013 13:19:02 GMT

The fabulous giant Walrus at The Horniman Museum in London is on the move to a new temporary exhibition in Margate until September. Not an easy task as he weighs nearly a ton and has had pride of place at the museum since 1901. The move will also give the museum a chance to explore the Walrus more fully ad xrays will be taken to see whats inside the great body. He will be missed but never fear he will return at the end of the year. The museum is a truly fabulous little gem and if you haven't been yet, it is well worth a trip.

Dec 12, Dickens Museum House Re-Opens

Wed, 12 Dec 2012 16:18:17 GMT

The Dickens Museum House has been closed since the summer due to a huge £3 million refurbishment. The museum has finally re-opened to the public this week and I must say Wow what a great improvement. The house has been returned to a state which better reflects how the house would have looked when Dickens lived there. Rooms are laid out as if the family have just left them which really does give you a real sense of the man and his life. The whole experience is far more enriching than it has ever been and for those true Dickens fans will surely delight and warrant a return visit sooner rather than later. The only down side is that admission costs have risen by £1 but hey it really is a much better museum now.
